Denise and Phil got together on EastEnders and Twitter was horrified
She sure does know how to pick 'em, does Denise...
If you were watching last night's EastEnders you may have borne witness to the union of two long term residents of Albert Square.
Now there's nothing unusual about the folk of E20 gettin' it on, but when it's Denise Fox and Phil Mitchell, well, that changes things entirely.
And you thought her snogging Fatboy was upsetting...
Needless to say, the pair's liaison got Twitter talking, leading both 'Denise and Phil' and 'Phil and Denise' to trend on Twitter during the evening.
Some viewers were put off their dinner.
Denise and Phil together ??? just so wrong #EastEnders

One viewer pointed out a worrying trend in Phil's choice of bed buddies.
Denise and Phil? That is just beyond.. Why is it that Phil keeps sleeping and having Ian's wives? #EastEnders @bbceastenders ??

But the real heroes of the night were people who made the best EastEnders joke we've heard in an age.
